DEP BUT YET AL1YE
It 1b reported of tlio only Drown on
tho Itopubllcan ticket that he referred
to his Into opponent Wilcox at vari
ous places where meetings were held
and speeches made In manner as fol
lows What Is tho udo of your vot
ing for a man who is very sick with
one foot In tho grave and tho other
foot trailing after lt7 That ono
foot In tho gravo camo true prior to
which sho waB dally seen In hie of
fice What was sho doing there
may we ask It may bo answered that
It was nono of our business but It
looked suspicions nnyway
Brown may now bo happy that Wil
cox Is at last dead and that ho would
have plain snlllng and an easy walk
over liul wo aro of tho opinion that ho
has just ns sturdy an opponent In Jno
II Wise and If not moro eo since Wil
coxs death Homo Rulers claim that
tho spirit of tho dead leader Is hover
ing over his party and his substitute
ono ho had thought that If elected he
would mako his deputy Wlsos
chances aro even better In our view
no to tho outlook than were Wilcoxs
In that ouo of the chief objections to
tho latters candidacy was tho frd
quency of visits to and Intimacy dis
played between his bettor halfand his
opponent has been removed by his
death In tho midst of strlfo nnd there
fore those who thought that way aro
now free to voto for Wteo In opposi
tion to Brown And may election day
show such to bo tho case
Another man who may be happy In
tho rrJ1Tltiil of bis prediction Is
7jynomrwr i
Doss AcliI of tho Fifth who Is re
ported to hnvo made an open declara
tion In frtmt of tho Homo Itulo head
quaitcrs that he would pay 500 to any
kahuna who would pray Wilcox to
death Wo know of course that these
were only the words of a peevish brag
gart probably too Insignificant to bo
noticed but death having since en
sued to his hearts content It Is likely
that ho may follow as a fitting sequel
to his realized wish Anger and lack
of Influence may have been the cause
for these cruel remarks but the wrath
to como may yet deal harshly with
thoso who would want to deal harshly
with others
Homo Rulers Including Wilcox
himself answered these remarks by
saying that ho was not yet destined
to die Dut death came as a thief In
tho niGht and took his life In flight
unexpectedly Knowing himself to bo
weak In health ho made his light
bravely and manfully to tho end boast
fully claiming that his death was not
near and that his end was yet afar off
Dut tho Maker of all mankind thought
otherwise It was not his will nor
ours but Thy will be done Wil
coxs opponents aro evidently happy
that he has been forever removedout
of his sphere of Influence but there
will yet arlso another to take up tho
cudgols whero ho laid them and renew
the light whcrc he left off
Now wo come to tho show of sym
pathy mado by the Republicans It
was not sincere and only a
lng expedient All of It was only sur
face show and not skin deep and tho
voters know trust them for that how
to treat with them at tho ballot box
Tho tide Is turning against them and
tho results will surely show on election
day

Henchman John Lane said last night
down at the Peninsula meeting as
sisted by a luau feed and
bout that Homo Rulers showed a
lack of sympathy for Wilcox by hold
ing a monster meeting at tho sanio
placolast Saturday whereas tho Re
publicans called alLtbcir meetings off
for that night Good reason why they
called them off they cant draw the
crowd nnd tho enthusiasm without
beer and feed Last nights crowd
was about one half of tho previous
nightto crowd nnd that without beer
or feed nothing but plain enthusiasm
Tho tide of popular feeling Is turning
